A Christmas Labyrinth

After the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, give yourself a break to pause for a moment of quiet reflection. To help, the Chewelah Performing and Culture Arts organization is hosting this first-of-its-kind, post-holiday labyrinth, designed to “guide participants through a symbolic journey, often used during the Advent season to encourage reflection and spiritual contemplation.” The winding path is to be lined with donated Christmas trees, which the Chewelah Center for the Arts is accepting from community members on Dec. 26 and 27. As visitors meander the winding path to its center, event organizer Paula Randall hopes they are met with feelings of peacefulness. At the labyrinth’s center, along with a message and a small gift, they’ll find a small fire pit with hot cocoa, cider and s’mores to purchase.
